I Feel Different is a powerful animated short film that brings to life the stories of autistic girls and women in their own words.
Created from interviews, writings, and original artwork, this moving piece invites us into the sensory and emotional worlds of those who often feel life differently.
The film is based on the research of the Playing A/Part team, based at the Universities of Kent and Surrey, in collaboration with autistic people. Their Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) programme explores the identities and experiences of autistic girls through drama, interactive media, and participatory arts.
